The cars are terribly manufactured, there are many videos of them falling completely, sometimes right off the lot.

They don't meet their reported towing spec, they haul about as much as a cargo bike, they can't off-road.

The only reason to own one is to participate in the culture war. That sort of thing tends to cycle quickly.

Yeah this. Total shit. I had a Model S P100D and the doors didn't even shut or line up properly. If you can't get the basics right then there's going to be a lot of problems hiding away that you can't see and serious procedural and process problems.

On mine I had unintended braking randomly in the middle of the motorway. I think that's less fucked than unintended acceleration at least. Maybe not for the guy behind me.

I now don't own a car. It was the most money I've lost in one go and the worst vehicle I've ever driven.

Was this back when they had radar? Unintended braking is/was a common issue for all manufacturers - my Prius would randomly slam on the brakes whenever I went underneath a bridge.

Yes it was. Probably signal aliasing. I drove a dumbcar after (shitty bottom end Citroen) which exhibited no problems! :)
